Recording set during ∄ Club Night 2021.05.06. It was sunny day and rainy evening.

Backyard closing set

Next up in the Fast Forward Audio Series we present: Roma Ptashenko

From 2012 Roma has found his inspiration in the roots of rave culture — the 90s: Belgium with its accelerated-rough rhythms, melancholic trance and acid with its emotional edges, Britain and hard trance from Bonzai Records, as well as early releases on German Harthouse and rave revival from ТРИП label. 

His first DJ experiments took place accordingly: two old decks, CD disk records and endless mixing.

As a result, Roma's sets have become adjust compositions that belong to the dancefloor, but leave the space for real bangers. The big-bit track smoothly enters techno cage: Cari Lekebusch suddenly weaves with Nina Kravitz's sensual hits, and Prodigy remix drowns into progressive house of the duo Der Dritte Raum.

Over the past few years, his performances could be regularly seen both in the main Moscow techno-mecca Mutabor, and in St. Petersburg's Blank or the closed underground space of Raf25, in Tbilisi's Drama Bar and Yerevan's Poligraf.

Roma is a member of two iconic Moscow communities: the Volchok streetwear project, where he leads his series of podcasts and organizes parties. And the Popoff Kitchen music queer community. This year, the association was included in the list of the most influential projects that form youth culture.

The Brvtalist is proud to present a new mix from Eva Selezneva. Born in Kharkiv and raised in Kyiv, the Ukrainian artist first pursued a career as a song writer before finding a passion for sharing music through DJ sets. Coming up in the Kyiv scene, within a few years she became a resident of the renowned Vognyk Bar. Selezneva mixes a diverse array of genres from body, wave, electro, disco, house and more with a fresh style and infectious energy. She has always brought a set to one of our Brvtal Vision parties and we are thrilled to host this great one from her today.

Next up in our mix series is Zitto & Zurkin, two central figures and cornerstones in the Tbilisi-scene. Zitto is a resident at Bassiani, and is turning into one of the most intriguing figures for the local clubbing sphere, with his level of selection and world building. Zurkin is another central figure of the Tbilisi community, being the co-founder of Vodkast Records, both an imprint and Tbilisi vinyl oasis for fervid record lovers.

In this episode we are presenting a marathon live recording of their closing set from Bassiani, January 27th. Dive into this 9,5 hour ride, where they navigate between trance and psychedelic techno from the past three decades. Steering seamlessly through rolling chuggers, trippy euphoria and wormhole trance, Zitto and Zurkin are a truly fruitful symbiosis.

Ute Mix Series #88 | Zitto b2b Zurkin

Decade of Memories saw some of the biggest names in the field come together to mark 10 years of Bassiani, an apposite mix of talents whose own times at the club have each added their own note to its story. In turbulent times and now more than ever the power of music, dance and community is needed and on October 4th these tried and true talents were just the ticket. Among them, Voiski and Sophie Phare played b2b duties on the Horoom floor, a genius pairing of two sounds who find common ground in their love of the fast and rhythmic. The former a French veteran with over a decade of tales to tell and frequent musical acknowledgement of his Iranian roots, whose ever expanding universe has charted disparate paths in collaboration with names like Heartbeat, Vril, Elliot Litrowski, Wata Igarashi, Crysta Patterson and Hadone (Vrilski, Superski, Wav, Kartel and Voiski & Hadone respectively), with over 200 releases and 20 EPs to his name on labels like Mama Told Ya, L.I.E.S., Dekmantel and Delsin. The latter a Georgian mainstay, previous podcast guest and Bassiani resident whose effervescent and catchy melodies would have a cheetah breaking a sweat. Their double alliance meanders through the ambient and expansive texture of Voiski’s world and the sagacious kitsch of Phare’s own making for a high-powered three-hour set that channels the revolutionary spirit of Tbilisi’s creative scene. With the likes of these two at the helm of the Horoom floor and on good track, the next ten years are sure to promise countless more feelings, encounters and memories. Bassiani Podcast 236 is one such special moment, recorded live here on home turf.

Dob-S is about drama, groove and freedom of sound. in his sets he prefers techno, breaks and softfield sound without templates.

here is what the artist himself says about his mix:

"It happened on the UNDER dance floor at ARMA17, a place we once fell in love with and still love today.
It was a Shift party by the Subspace crew.
I was shutting down the dance floor with music ranging from 138 to 172 BPM. Full house. No one wanted to leave.
It was one of the most special moments of this spring for me."

встречайте с теплом 14-й выпуск в нашей коллекции, записанный для нас Dob-S. Сергей Добровольский — диджей из Ростова-на-Дону, куратор и культурный активист. он стоит у истоков клуба ЛКМ, ко-организует рейвы ERROR_404 и является резидентом Resonance Moscow.

Dob-S — про драматургию, грув и свободу звучания. в своих сетах он отдает предпочтение техно, брейкам и лефтфилд звуку без шаблонов. 

вот что сам артист говорит про свой микс:

«Это случилось на танцполе UNDER в ARMA17 — месте, которое мы когда-то влюбились и продолжаем любить до сих пор.
Вечеринка Shift от команды Subspace.
Я закрывал танцпол: от 138 до 172 bpm. Полный зал. Никто не хотел уходить.
Один из самых особенных моментов этой весны для меня».

Fast Forward Productions was formed in December 2015 as a new take on DIY rave culture. All events are built from the ground up, focusing on our local scene and collaborating with like-minded crews and concepts from abroad.
With a focus on social engagement, and by using activists from the local community to help make the events come to life, Fast Forward actively focuses on creating safer spaces at the venues we use. Sexism, racism, homophobia, and transphobia are not tolerated.
